How are you going to spend the longest weekend of the year?
EASTER weekend is almost here, and for many of us, that means big nights out, long lie-ins, and meet-ups with mates. We've rounded up some of the best things to do this bank holiday weekend in Manchester from sushi under the cherry blossoms at Australasia, to a Latin dance party at Ramona.
